On November 10 the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence's Josh Horwitz called on Colorado Springs to defy state law and end open carry within city limits.
Horwitz wants to end decades of open carry for law-abiding citizens because one man, Noah Harpman, used a gun criminally on Halloween and killed three innocents before police were able to kill him.
Writing in the Huffington Post, Horwitz argued that Colorado's open carry laws allowed Harpman to walk around with guns without drawing the kind of reaction he should have drawn before his attack even began. Horwitz cites a 911 call by a concerned citizen who saw Harpman and reported him openly carrying a "a black rifle" and two gas cans. The witness, Naomi Bettis, also told the dispatcher that Harpman "appeared to have broken the window of a ground-floor business."
Bettis said the dispatcher told her Colorado was an open carry state, but officers would be sent in response to a "possible burglary in progress." Minutes later Bettis called police again to say the man had shot someone and they better come quick. Horwitz seizes on this to claim that Colorado's open carry laws enabled the man to move around freely until he was ready to commit his crime.
It is interesting to note that Horwitz's summary of Bettis' 911 call omits something she alludes to struggling with as she talked to the dispatcher. Namely, that she didn't know if the gun was real or not, as it was prime time for Halloween costumes. According to The Washington Post, Bettis said, "I couldn't tell if it was real or not, it being Halloween day, you know, but that's what I told her."
That is actually a key aspect of her call and something that may have played a much larger role in police response time than did open carry laws which have been in place for decades.
Nevertheless, Horwitz is now asking Colorado Springs Mayor John Suthers (R) to defy Colorado's state law by seeking a ban on open carry within city limits. Colorado has a preemption law in place that bars cities and municipalities from regulating firearms in a way other than as they are regulated at the state level, but Horowitz points out that Denver successfully challenged that law in 2006, and he now wants to see Colorado Springs to do the same.

Dolorence Okullo entered the Master of Health Informatics program with 13 years of experience working in data management and analysis in Uganda.
Her journey into health informatics began as a volunteer with The AIDS Support Organization (TASO) in Uganda, one of the first organizations to support people infected and affected by HIV/AIDS. In this setting, she observed how the constant maintenance of patient- and physician-based record books detracted from the quality of patient care.
Driven by a passion for creating better systems and with only the most basic tools available, Dolorence helped TASO organize their patient data into charts and tables for presentation to managers and stakeholders.
"This was my first time working with data," she said. "This defined my future and where I wanted to go."
Due in part to her efforts, the branch of TASO where Dolorence worked was recognized as the center with the best quality of data. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) was able to utilize this data to set up a public health evaluation within the local district. Soon afterwards, she accepted a data management position with the CDC in Uganda.
There, she led the design of a blood bank information system, the design of a data management systems for the evaluation of a drug adherence study and the development of a clinical laboratory information system, with tools such as Microsoft Access and Epi_info.
Her support of public health evaluation in Uganda has been recognized by the U.S. Embassy, which honored her with four Franklin Awards, and the CDC, which awarded her the CGH Director's Global Health Strategy Award for her leadership in a data quality assessment project with the Ministry of Health.
During her career, Dolorence continued to serve with the Ministry of Health, the CDC, CDC-funded partners and the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) program, a government initiative that addresses HIV/AIDS around the world. She most recently worked as a Public Health Specialist for Monitoring with the CDC, helping to design M&E frameworks, data capture and collection systems, and to monitor the performance of these systems.
Around 2009, Dolorence started referring to herself as a "health informatician," a term that was not widely used at the time. While those around her were encouraging her to pursue a Master's in Public Health, she understood her true role as that of an informatician within the field of health.
In 2011, she enrolled in a master's program at Uganda Martyrs University and received her Masters of Science in Information Systems. However, she was still interested in pursuing a Masters in Health Informatics. When U-M announced their new MHI program, Dolorence says she received support from her family and co-workers to apply.
Now a first-year MHI student, Dolorence hopes to hone her skills in developing efficient, user-friendly and accessible analysis systems to be used by practitioners, managers and policy makers.
She discusses how working in Uganda, she was faced with the silos of information systems, missing data and loss of patient records, and that frustration with quality data pushed her to understand how she could find effective solutions to these healthcare issues.
"One of the things I'm learning through my introductory courses is that some of the challenges we face back home [in Uganda] are also here," Dolorence explains. "For example the silos of electronic health records (EHRs) and issues pertaining to quality of data are also back home. These are some of the areas that have bothered me and that I hope to work towards after completing my master's."
With her degree, she hopes to focus on patient-centered information systems that promote standardization around the globe. She hopes to continue this journey by working with consultancies, government and global agencies.
Extending beyond her service to the field of public health, Dolorence enjoys giving back to the community through volunteering. She says engaging in community activities allows one to build relationships and experience. In addition to her volunteer work with TASO in Uganda, she has worked with Food Forward, an organization in Los Angeles that connects people with fresh local produce that would otherwise go to waste, and most recently she volunteered at a homeless shelter in Ann Arbor.

A Certified Nursing Assistant or CNA is someone who works together with medical professionals with a common goal of providing medical care to those who need them. As part of the medical team, they report right to a registered nurse.
Being a CNA requires you to be stable at all times, having above average nursing skills and a notable experience in the field. There are plenty of medical establishments where you are required to report may it be a rehabilitation center, hospital, or an elderly care facility. It is your responsibility to grant basic healthcare like carrying out personal good hygiene, getting vital signs, helping them doing exercises, and also providing motivation. It's through you that registered nurses and licensed practical nurses get their information from, and that's what makes you even more essential in any medical field. Ultimately, you have to have CNA Certification.
There are actually numerous schools in Memphis offering top notch training programs. By completing the training program, your future seems bright in the certification exam. The licensing test is separated into two: written and practical. Theories and book knowledge are what you could expect in the written exam. While the practical examination is all about hands-on application. If you are able to pass both, then you're now certified.
There is a so-called registry, where your name will be added upon successful passing of the examination. Since companies base their hires on this list, be sure you make it there. Memphis hosts a lot of job opportunities requiring the services of certified nursing assistants; you only need to take your pick. Being a CNA is something to be proud of. Being able to touch people's lives and help sufferers get going requires a lot of compassion and heart. Think you can be one of them? Don't delay, start today.Author: Paula Shelton

State/Local Funding
State Revenue and Appropriations
Funding Principles for Judicial Administration
Steps Taken to Address Tough Economic Times
Staffing Levels and Operating Expenses:
Service Reductions: Over the past four years, the Arizona courts have reduced hours of operation, had staff layoffs, delayed filling judicial vacancies and have delayed filling vacancies in judicial support positions. In the coming year, they will continue to delay filling vacancies in the clerks' offices and in judicial support positions. Service reductions have resulted in limited access to court services and have increased backlogs and delays in disposing of cases.
Compensation: Over the past four years, the courts have frozen the salaries of judicial officers and court staff and have furloughed court staff. In the coming year, they will continue to freeze judicial salaries.
Efficiency Measures: The Arizona courts have implemented E-filing, an electronic document management system, an enhanced case management system, and electronic workflow. They have enabled law enforcement to file e-citations. Persons can make e-payment of fees and fines, can access virtual self-help centers and can access a virtual web-based information center to provide public access to records. Arizona has expanded the use of video technologies, including video recording of court proceedings, video hearings and video interpretation.
Restructuring: Arizona has consolidated courthouses and has reallocated staff. Justice Courts have been co-located at a new regional courthouse. Justice and Superior Courts have been co-located.
Business Processes: The courts have implemented and will continue to implement an enhanced caseflow management program. They have transitioned to digital recording of court proceedings and are videoconferencing arraignments and detention hearings and remote interpretation. E-citations and e-filing are eliminating work for state agencies.
Outsourcing: The courts are outsourcing the collection of fines, data entry, electronic filing and the translation of court protective order forms.
Centralization: The courts have a centralized call center and payment center and have centralized collections processing.
The Arizona courts are in a worse position than four years ago to provide access and timely justice. The courts and probation departments have undergone substantial budget reductions.

Wilhelm Maximilian Wundt (16 August 1832 – 31 August 1920) was a German physician, physiologist, philosopher, and professor, known today as one of the founding figures of modern psychology. Wundt, who noted psychology as a science apart from biology and philosophy, was the first person to ever call himself a psychologist. He is widely regarded as the "father of experimental psychology". In 1879, Wundt founded the first formal laboratory for psychological research at the University of Leipzig. This marked psychology as an independent field of study. A Review of General Psychology survey, published in 2002, ranked Wundt as the 93rd most cited psychologist of the 20th century, tied with Edwin Boring, John Dewey, and Amos Tversky.
By creating this laboratory he was able to explore the nature of religious beliefs, identify mental disorders and abnormal behavior, and find damaged parts of the brain. In doing so, he was able to establish psychology as a separate science from other topics. He also formed the first academic journal for psychological research, Philosophische Studien, in the year 1883.
Wundt concentrated on three areas of mental functioning; thoughts, images and feelings. These are the basic areas studied today in cognitive psychology. This means that the study of perceptual processes can be traced back to Wundt. Wundt's work stimulated interest in cognitive psychology.

BOYNTON BEACH -- The morning was cloudy, but the Rev. Elder Wright`s smile could have passed for sunshine.
It was Thanksgiving Day, and Wright was sharing a turkey dinner with the needy at the Boynton Hill Church of God in Christ.
``I`m so happy on the inside, I guess it shows on the outside,`` Wright said through a grin that stretched from ear to ear. ``We wanted everybody to have a Thanksgiving.``
Wright`s parishioners pooled their money and clothes so that hungry and disadvantaged neighbors could have a reason to give thanks. They used the $800 they raised to buy turkeys, stuffing, rolls, candied yams, green beans, coffee and juice.
The job of preparing the feast fell to Margaret Shepherd, a parishioner who is also a professional cook. The meals were packed in styrofoam containers and passed out to anyone who walked in the door.
``We`re doing this for the needy people of our community,`` said Shepherd, who works at the Hyatt Regency in West Palm Beach. ``But it doesn`t matter who you are. There`s no questions asked. All we ask is that you take along one of our (religious) pamphlets when you go.``
A few people stayed at the church to eat, but most carried their dinners home. For the sick and incapacitated, the church delivered. Eric Wright, the Reverend`s nephew, hooked up a wagon to his bicycle and made the deliveries himself.
``You should their faces when I pull up,`` he said. ``They`re real happy. It makes me feel good.``
The Rev. Wright said many of those who came for the free dinners were people with drug or alcohol problems. Others are living in cars or don`t have enough clothing, he said.

Here's an all-inclusive resort that we should all aspire to stay at, even if just for 1 night. Let's Discover: The Manta Resort, aka The Floating Hotel.
Off the African coast of Tanzania, in the semi-autonomous region known as Zanzibar, this exotic resort on Pemba Island is nothing short of perfect.
Just imagine, the Indian Ocean and all it's wealth of wildlife, swimming, scuba diving, and white sand beaches are yours to enjoy at your leisure. The most spectacular accommodation choice offered at the Manta Resort is their Underwater Room: a floating hotel just for 2, and with it's bedroom located 4 metres below the ocean surface, you won't even have to leave your room to 'sea' the incredible turquoise waters.

Had a opportunity to meet this lovely young lady earlier this evening, had a great introductory session, pics are spot on, and she couldn't have been friendlier. Great definition of a gfe. Abundant dfk, daty and the bbbj was endless and very enthusiastic. Not once was I reminded of the time even tho we were over by a few min, in fact she started giving me a back massage afterwards! Booking over text was easy and answered promptly kudos to tgf on this one!
I had the chance to see Amelia at the airport the other day.
In a word I had a great time with her, I would see her again without hesitation. I thought by now there would have been at least one or two reviews of her, maybe some guys are trying to keep her off the radar.
She might not be a hard body but I was not disappointed by her looks, she has a cute fresh face, pretty smile, lean body, small breasts (but I like real tits over fake one's any day of the week) with a few tats, but nothing over the top.
She said that she is completely new to the business just a few days under her belt, but I found her to be very comfortable and confident with what she was doing.
All the usual services were offered up: kissing, daty, bbbj and cfs. I really enjoyed her oral talents, she took direction well. Tries to go a little deeper when asked, goes a little slower when asked. Finished CIM, when I asked for it she jumped right to it.
I see that TGF added a few other "new" girls, I must try them too. I hope Amelia sticks around for awhile and that she comes to the Vaughan area soon, now if only she would do a threesome…
Submit a review of one of our companions and be entered into a draw for a free session!

Earth Jurisprudence (or 'Ecological Jurisprudence', or 'Earth laws') is an emerging legal theory, and growing social movement, which aims to catalyse a shift in law from human-centeredness to a recognition of our interconnectedness with the wider Earth community. It draws deep inspiration from Earth-centred cultural traditions and governance systems of indigenous peoples around the world.
AELA is committed to working in partnership with people from Australia's First Nations. We pay our respects to all the First Nations peoples and to Elders past and present who, for millennia, have been stewards of the land now called Australia.
Our program 'Future Dreaming' aims to offer a space for non-Indigenous and Indigenous people to work together, as equal partners, in a respectful spirit of cross cultural learning and sharing. We believe that it is only by working together that we can create the unique, Earth-centred governance systems that will help us build a healthy, long-term relationship with the Earth community.
Future Dreaming is an 'umbrella' program for the following types of projects and activities:
Cross cultural learning and sharing
We aim to promote a range of Indigenous-owned cultural tours and learning programs to AELA members and friends over the coming years. We're committed to ensuring that non-Indigenous professionals and interested people can learn about and support Indigenous communities' and their projects.
Working together to create innovative Earth governance projects
AELA is interested in working with Indigenous groups to use the western legal system to better support Indigenous peoples' aspirations.
We have been inspired by the ground-breaking legal agreements created by Maori groups in New Zealand, where they have combined traditional Maori cultural obligations with western legal structures, to achieve greater recognition of cultural connections to country, and new ways of recognising the rights of the natural world to exist, thrive and evolve. Find out more information about these innovative Earth governance approaches.
Supporting and promoting traditional and contemporary indigenous knowledge – including hosting collaborative events
AELA is keen to work with Indigenous communities to promote the importance of traditional knowledge and wisdom in relation to caring for country. We see this as an important way to support social justice for Indigenous communities, and to ensure non-Indigenous people better understand Indigenous people's connection to country.
Here are examples of some of our projects:
- In October 2016, AELA will be hosting Australia's first Rights of Nature Tribunal, and the first case to be heard will be presented by traditional custodians of the Mardoowarra/Fitzroy River (WA). This case will include claims that the River must have its legal rights recognised, in accordance with the traditional custodians' 'first laws' and the rights of nature. Read more information about the Tribunal.
- In 2015, AELA interviewed indigenous custodians of the land and sea country of the Great Barrier Reef and sent a 10 minute video showing indigenous concerns about the Reef to the International Rights of Nature Tribunal which was held in conjunction with the COP21 climate negotiations in Paris. Read more about the International Tribunal.
- AELA is building a small, high quality list of publicly available articles, books, courses, documentaries, films and other material about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural heritage, and land and sea management. We will only access and promote publicly available material, approved by the relevant indigenous communities to share with non-indigenous people. More information about our online library will be available soon.
AELA's Indigenous Advisory Group
AELA has created an Indigenous Advisory Group, so that we can work with and seek guidance from indigenous people about all of our work, including the Future Dreaming program. Members so far include:
- Ross Williams, Bindal/Juru Elder of Bowen to Townsville region
- Marie Kemp, Ghungalu community, Central Queensland
- Margaret Kemp, Ghungalu community, Central Queensland
- Other members of the advisory group will be confirmed soon
For more information – or to share your ideas
If you would like more information about the activities planned within our 'Future Dreaming' program, or you have your own ideas and projects you'd like to tell us about – please contact: firstname.lastname@example.com We'd really love to hear from you!
From 2002 to 2007, an independent, not for profit indigenous community development organisation called 'Future Dreaming' ran innovative cross cultural, cultural heritage and community development projects in Central Queensland. Three of the original founders of this organisation are now involved in AELA's "Future Dreaming" program: AELA's National Convenor, Michelle Maloney, and Ghungalu community leaders Marie and Margaret Kemp, who have now joined AELA's Indigenous Advisory Group.

Communitarianism or Populism?
May 1992By Christopher Lasch
Christopher Lasch is Watson Professor of History at the University of Rochester and a Contributing Editor of the NOR. His latest book is The True and Only Heaven: Progress and Its Critics.
My title is meant to refer to a difference of emphasis, not to an irreconcilable opposition between two positions having nothing in common. The populist and communitarian traditions are distinguishable but historically intertwined; any account of those traditions and their contemporary significance has to do justice both to what unites them and to what sets them apart from each other. Populism is rooted in the defense of small proprietorship, which was widely regarded, in the 18th and early 19th centuries, as the necessary basis of civic virtue. Communitarianism has its intellectual antecedents in a sociological tradition, initially a conservative tradition, that found the sources of social cohesion in shared assumptions so deeply ingrained in everyday life that they dont have to be articulated in folkways, customs, prejudices, habits of the heart. Because both traditions shared certain common reservations about the Enlightenment, however, it has not always been easy to tell them apart. Nor has there seemed to be much point in this exercise. Both fell outside the dominant celebration of progress, and their agreement, on an issue of such importance, has made their differences seem trivial.
If terms like populism and community figure prominently in political discourse today, it is because the ideology of the Enlightenment is visibly crumbling. The claims of universal reason are universally suspect. Hopes for a system of values that would transcend the particularism of class, nationality, religion, and race no longer carry much conviction. The Enlightenments reason and morality are increasingly seen as a cover for power, and the prospect that the world can be governed by reason seems more remote than at any time since the 18th century. The citizen of the world the prototype of mankind in the future, according to the Enlightenment philosophers is not much in evidence. We have a universal market, but it does not carry with it the civilizing effects that were so confidently expected by Hume and Voltaire. Instead of generating a new appreciation of common interests and inclinations of the essential sameness of human beings everywhere the global market seems to intensify the awareness of ethnic and national differences. The unification of the market goes hand in hand with the fragmentation of culture.
The collapse of the Enlightenment manifests itself politically in the collapse of liberalism, in many ways the most attractive product of the Enlightenment and the carrier of its best hopes. Through all the permutations and transformations of liberal ideology, two of its central features have persisted over the years: its commitment to progress and its belief that a liberal state could dispense with civic virtue. The two ideas were linked in a chain of reasoning having as its premise that capitalism had made it reasonable for everyone to aspire to a level of comfort formerly accessible only to the rich. Henceforth men would devote themselves to their private business, reducing the need for government, which could more or less take care of itself. It was the idea of progress that made it possible to believe that societies blessed with material abundance could dispense with the active participation of ordinary citizens in government. In the aftermath of the American Revolution, liberals began to argue, in opposition to the older view that public virtue is the only foundation of republics, in the words of John Adams, that a proper system of constitutional checks and balances would make it advantageous even for bad men to act for the public good, as James Wilson put it. According to John Taylor, an avaricious society can form a government able to defend itself against the avarice of its members by enlisting the interest of vice on the side of virtue. Virtue lay in the principles of government, Taylor argued, not in the evanescent qualities of individuals. The institutions and principles of a society may be virtuous, though the individuals composing it are vicious.
The trouble with this agreeable paradox of a virtuous society based on vicious individuals is that liberals didnt really mean it. They took for granted a good deal more in the way of private virtue than they were willing to acknowledge. Even today, liberals who adhere to this minimal view of citizenship smuggle a certain amount of citizenship between the cracks of their free-market ideology. Milton Friedman himself admits that a liberal society requires a minimum degree of literacy and knowledge, along with a widespread acceptance of some common set of values. It is not clear that our society can meet even these minimal conditions, as things stand today; but it has always been clear, in any case, that a liberal society needs more virtue than Friedman allows for. A system that relies so heavily on the concept of rights presupposes individuals who respect the rights of others, if only because they expect others to respect their own rights in return. The market itself, the central institution of a liberal society, presupposes, at the very least, sharp-eyed, calculating, and dear-headed individuals paragons of rational choice. It presupposes not just self-interest but enlightened self-interest. It was for this reason that 19th-century liberals attached so much importance to the family. The obligation to support a wife and children, in their view, would discipline possessive individualism and transform the potential gambler, speculator, dandy, or confidence man into a conscientious provider. Having abandoned the old republican ideal of citizenship along with the republican indictment of luxury, liberals lacked any grounds on which to appeal to individuals to subordinate private interest to the public good. But at least they could appeal to the higher selfishness of marriage and parenthood. They could ask, if not for the suspension of self-interest, for its elevation and refinement.

Current Exhibits
Emerging local talent, Shanna Allyn, has composed photographic portraits of women that are like butterfly specimens displaying and showing-off beauty and presence. Two series of Allyn's work are one exhibit, one of which is new and seen for the first time.
May 14 through September 7, 2018 at Elmer L. Andersen Library Atrium Gallery. From Winona to Luverne, from Moorhead to Duluth, writers in Minnesota are inextricably connected. This exhibit will explore the reciprocal and often intimate relationships among writers and the role of editors and publishers in anchoring and supporting a literary community.
June 4 through September 14, 2018 at Elmer L. Andersen Library Gallery and Wallin Gallery. Libraries, archives, museums, historical societies, other cultural heritage institutions, and private collectors are invited to participate in a state-wide exhibition of global treasures from Minnesota's book and manuscript collections. The exhibits will focus on the "best" rare and unique books and manuscripts drawn from Minnesota institutions and individuals.
Upcoming Exhibits
Festival, Spectacle, and Celebration in the Early Modern World
September 24, 2018 through January 31, 2019 at Wallin Gallery at Elmer L. Andersen Library. Humans throughout recorded time have come together to celebrate, to express common cause, and to practice public rituals. From Venice to Beijing, from Cairo to Greenland to the South Pacific, this James Ford Bell Library exhibition will explore this fascinating aspect of the human experience that is common to us all.
Such a Big Dream
October 8, 2018 through January 18, 2019 at Elmer L. Andersen Library Atrium Gallery. "It's such a big dream, I can't see it all," is what Edward S. Curtis said of his master work, The North American Indian, published between 1907 and 1930. Co-curated by Curtis expert Christopher Cardozo, this exhibit highlights not only this work, but also examines Curtis' life and the impact he had on photography.

Hard to believe, I know, but I've been in the automotive industry for more than three decades (since 1984). In all those decades, I've seen far to many good men and women injured and even killed from lack of proper safety restraints, or improperly used harnesses, or poorly installed racing seat belts.
This is controversial, for sure, yet safety restraints are critically important.
What I'm hoping to accomplish here is to raise people's consciousness's of what's currently on the market, and what they can easily install to improve the safety of their children, their pets, and, yes, even their own lives!!
Most of what I plan to feature here is intended for passenger cars, trucks, and vans. I man venture out into full-on race application, since my heart's there anyway! =-)
Please forgive me if this is an on-again and off-again set of content updates, because my other business ventures take ma away from the "InterWebs" LOL
Hey, either way, I'm doing all this because I have kids and pets and family and friends who ALL need to buckle up!

Are you an SME that has just decided that selecting a CRM (customer relationship management) system – or business development in general – is a priority for the coming year?
Or you've finally decided to migrate all your prospect or customer data out of the wonderful world of Excel and into a cloud-based CRM system – because you are a growing business that is going to do things properly from now on.
Perhaps you've survived – and grown very nicely so far – on referrals, word-of-mouth and recommendations; but are now determined to grow your customer base at a faster rate, moving into new markets with new products and services.
It might also be that you've seen big changes in your industry recently and you're having to do everything differently simply to survive – and your new business, sales and marketing is simply part of that process.
If these sound like you, you're in the right place.
Sorting out your data and CRM system does need some focused attention to get it right, but once you're up and running it can move into the business as usual stage.
So, what (briefly) is a CRM?
For anyone newer to business development, sales and data – a CRM system is the name for the software that manages all your customer and prospect data, the contact and relationship you have with them, some of the communication you have with them, and your sales and sales forecasting pipeline.
You can get systems that are little more than glorified rolodexes (sorry, showing my age…), and ones that do all your project management, accounting and admin – plus a host of different ones inbetween. If you've got all your other systems in place and you're happy with those, you may be best off with a specific CRM that purely manages your prospects, your pipeline and your new business forecasting.
For the smaller businesses out there, hefty CRMs such as Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics are likely to be quickly ruled out due to cost, complexity and sheer size.
If you're new to CRMs, then finding one that gives you a one or two user licence for free can be the best way to start.
Get your first tranche of data in, start using it, get a feel for HOW you need to use it and WHAT you actually do want it to do. Check back with your own internal resources, and once everyone's got the hang of it you can decide to stick, upgrade or switch.
My advice on CRM systems
Is really quite short and simple.
- Allow a reasonable amount of time to find one you like. Focus on it, don't grab the first one you've heard of, but equally (if you're small and only one or two people will be using it) don't let it drag on for weeks and weeks.
- The person with responsibility for sales – or client development – needs to want to use it, be happy to use it and encourage or teach others to use it. So they really need to be the main voice in researching and selecting it.
- Ask anyone you know who is currently and actively using a CRM whether they would or wouldn't recommend theirs – bearing in mind how similar (or different) their needs are to yours – then head over to the G2 Crowd review site and start doing your homework.
- Look around the demos and tutorials, and sign up to a bunch of free trials. Contact the sales people and help desks so you know what it would feel like to get support, and ask them all the same questions. Best question to ask, before they know anything about you is, "Who is your product best for?"
- Upgrading from a basic, free CRM is much, much easier – and feels an awful lot better – than trying to manage or escape from a big, costly one that does far too much and no-one uses.
To get you started, here's a few CRMs I've come across that I suggest you include in your own review.
Some CRMs I've come across (that SMEs may like)
Insightly – good allrounder, both a client and a friend have recently gone for this one, with the concise YouTube tutorials being cited as a real help.
Highrise – simple, takes a little while to get used to the layout if you've used bigger CRMs before. Built by the same guys who own Basecamp so if you run that as your project management system, might be a useful fit. Continually being updated but seen (by some) as a bit small and lacking in functionality.
Nimble – positioned as a social CRM to help build communities. Here's a quote from a friend (thanks Wendy S!) who reviewed it. "Nimble has has won plenty of awards and I think the premise of relationship building as sales driver is definitely the right way to go, however I can't get it to work for me very well without needing demos etc. It removes a lot of data input and was developed by the person who developed Goldmine so I suggest you do have a trial of it."
Really Simple Systems – does what it says on the tin, described as easy to use and great for straightforward businesses. Does pretty well on the G2 Crowd review site, scoring 4.3 out of 5.
Zoho – perhaps better for the bigger companies. Wendy's review, "Can be clunky and not as intuitive – kind of a leaner Salesforce – so bigger companies love it. Has 15 million users. Feels corporate but has all requirements covered with no need for 3rd party integrations."
Nutshell – I don't know much about this one, though it scores a healthy 4.4 out of 5 on the G2 Crowd reviews. Positioned as a powerful cross platform and cross device solution so if you've got a workforce on mixed devices this could be a good fit.
Hubspot – there is a free version available, it's grown rapidly in recent times and was getting some top reviews. Lots of functionality in the paid version, increasingly there are comments about being expensive.
You may notice that I have completely avoided recommending any particular system.
This is because I have learnt – through experience – that every company needs to choose their own. There is no 'best' software. Every firm is different, and even if they have great similarities (e.g. SME selling B2B services, turnover around £1m), they can like radically different systems.
Choosing your CRM is about what is best for you, and can be a surprisingly subjective decision.
They need to have 'had a go' at the trials, looked at some of the demos and got their own feel for what's out there. Because it seems that even though it's only a (free in some cases) cloud based software system, it's still a very personal decision.
Your comments and recommendations on a CRM
If you have any positive, negative or educational experiences of choosing or using a CRM recently, then please tell us all about it by leaving comments that other readers may find helpful. Take a moment to mention the type of work you do, so that the comments can be seen in context.
We will all thank you for it. Bye for now.

The Forest Mourners
Recorded in 2008 and released as a Pro CD-R demo of 100 copies the same year. Re-released and remastered in 2010 by Kunsthauch Records with a limited edition of 13 coming with a glossy metallic poster of the new artwork. Released for the first time on vinyl in 2015 by Essential Purification Records in three colours: black (300), purple-red (100), and glow in the dark marbled (100).
Journey Across the Sea
From afar these strangers came
With fire in their eyes
Their swords were jewelled, their shields adorned
Their tongues all spoke of lies
They burnt our shrines, they killed our gods
They took all that we owned
They raped our wives and killed the men
Some hung and some were stoned
But from this day I will return a man so strong and brave
I'll claim the land, my stolen home
Their blood my father's gave
With an army a million strong, I'll march for their glory
And they shall fear my name before I sail across the sea
I am the storms, that crash into the sea
I am the serpent who lurks in waters deep
Eternal vengeance, fuels my inner soul
A reclamation of all that you stole
I am the vermin, that bite at your feet
I am the howling, unsettling your sleep
And in your visions, you see the flames
Death is returning, and wrath is his name
Night Spirits
Spirit of the Winter Mountain
Upon the mountain, within the fog
Lies a spirit who sings a song
He lures men up his wicked peaks
Then casts his wrath for the blood he seeks
The pride of men, he takes away
When he hungers, his song will lead them astray
Oh come to me, I can help
Come and take my hand
I'm the mountain's only son, born from deep within
From a distance I see amongst the trees, his pale face
I crave the blood and the flesh
His final breath I can already taste
Oh come to me, I can help
Come take my hand
I'm the mountain's only son, born from deep within
I see you've come far away and are alone again
Oh come to me, lonesome man
You're not king of this mountain
Twilight Storm
Forest Mourners
Under the moonlight, in winter's realm
The trees are silent, the wolves as well
Only the footsteps of men are heard
As they carry the wooden hearse
Mournful cries, flowing tears
Into the forest, they disappear
And from the trees, a funeral dirge
The forest mourners are forever heard
Under the evening fog the torches burn
The flaming flickers, light the twists and turns
And when they reach the sacred grove
The air gets colder, death consumes the shadows
Recorded in 2009 as released as a Pro CD-r demo of 100 copies. Re-released in 2010 by I, Voidhanger Records with new artwork and the last track shortened and slightly renamed. (Changed from "From Beyond the Eighth Sphere" to "Beyond the Eighth Sphere"). Released on vinyl for the first time in 2015 through Amor Fati Productions with 400 copies coming in Black, and 100 in Blue/Black.
From Forest to Firmament
into the forest I hear a shivering voice
She's calling me to mourn the end of life
But which life ends, another's or mine
In the end we all succumb to time
And then I see her standing
With her finger pointed at me
She tells me when I fall asleep tonight
That I will take my last breath of life
Under the crimson fullmoon,
My time will cease
I'll leave the forest for the astral sky.
Her words are sealed by a cold kiss
Then she wanders out of sight.
I try to stay awake all night
The moon is low, my eyes are heavy
I soon succumb to total exhaustion
Though fearful thoughts dominate me
I feel the end is nigh
I can't pretend that this is a dream
All I can do is look to the sky
Nocturnal Prey
Drowning is misery,
of thoughtlessness decay
The shadows engulf me
like a cunning predator
And I am its prey, helpless and alone
Without a prancing light to lead me away
The sombre noises of the darkest night
play in my head and their music is madness
I am their prey, confused and haunted
Without the insight to keep them away
The stars are trying
to lure me to their light
The fire's calling me
to share its warmth
The wolves are howling
to keep me on my toes
The owl is watching me now
he sees my movement
from within the trees
he senses unease
and stares a little closer
he smells my flesh
from which will be a feast
Of night's unholy minions.
Lying in peace,
no more air do I breathe
The rats pick and prod
and scavenge from my bones
I am their prey, a blissful winter feast
And now I smile, the pain has gone away.
Departing Flesh and Bone
A Host for Ghosts
As Dark and Ominous as Stormclouds
ery quickly the night turns into day
The darkness forced to hide
to become shadows
The solace of the fullmoon
has been replaced
By the glaring heat of the sun
The rays pierce through me,
my spirit wanes
I wish to hide, though I have no body
I feel so dry, I feel as if I could die again.
As minutes pass
I see the sign of stormclouds
I see them forming as if in haste
Someone or something
is trying to shelter me
I feel no need to shy away.
The dark grey clouds
have blanketed the sunshine
The air is colder
and still there is no sound
I sense the start of thunder
and pouring rain
as my spirit flies into the storm.
Salvation Denied
The rain pours down,
it's freezing cold
And soon I'm flying
through a storm of ice
I've not been this cold
since the moment I died
and though I left my flesh behind,
I shiver.
The thunder crashes down
It's quite a dreadful sound
and the lightning bolts
go flashing around.
And without knowing
I'm struck a shock so strong
and I go crashing back down
to the ground.
Storms of Fire and Ice
From Firmament to Forest
Condemned to fall,
I feel the weight of thousands
as nothing halts my drop
into the brimstone halls
I see the moon
and stars getting further away
I know the fate that holds me,
I know the pain to come.
The light above gets smaller,
I feel the heat rise
The blackness of this dwelling
mirrors the night sky
And cries of pain surround me
And hands reach out to grab me
And evil souls possess me
And show me tortured visions
Now I wander weightless,
my touch is freezing cold
The souls have complete control,
I've surrendered purgatory
I know my future will bring me back
once more
To the forest where I died, to roam
the earth once more…
Beyond the Eighth Sphere

that you help a new client receive positive media coverage.
In this case, the new client is Lumens. They make visual presenters. What are those? Think of the overhead projector when you were a kid. Put that on steroids. Add the ability record audio and video with one button, hook it up to an HD monitor and project in HD1080. It's a big, big jump.
This week, Lumens introduced the PS660. The first HD1080 projector priced under $2,000.
We think it's pretty cool and apparently Ken Royal from Scholastic Administrator did as well. Thanks Ken for meeting with the nice folks from Lumens at FETC!

JAY NOEL - author of Dragonfly Warrior

1. What cheese goes best with the story progressions in Moonless?
The best cheese for Moonless is probably Jarlsberg. (And not just because it's what I'm craving lately, although it could be that too.) With a milder bite than Swiss (for action and suspense), it's well aged and holed with mystery. It's slightly sweet, for romance, and somewhat nutty for the unexpected.
2. When I envision the cheese/character resemblances, I imagine Alexia as Swiss (smells unattractive but a unique & interesting "life", much like when the nights are moonless). What would you say Kiren & Bellezza's cheese resemblances are?
3. How many times in Moonless did you mention cheese, your true passion?
First of all, let's set one thing straight: cheese = happiness, so in that regard, there are occasional snatches of cheese between the traumatizing crazy of world-altering explosiveness.
*deep breath*
Alas, cheese is never mentioned directly in Moonless. (I KNOW—how is that possible?) The humor is rather subdued, although there are little incidents like one character calling Kiren "delicious," and someone accusing Alexia of being a "bottle-wielding pygmy". Moonless is a milder brand of cheese.
Thank you for stopping by Crystal. Good luck!! Sign up for the rafflecopter below.

Do you think YOU'LL be reading "nekkid" with a tray full of cheese?

In advance of TNT's reboot of the television series "Dallas," Southfork Ranch, a private home turned conference and event center used as the exterior for the Ewings' mansion, has been welcoming more visitors than ever.
Since opening to the public in 1992, the 340-acre ranch in Parker, Tex., has attracted 400,000 visitors a year. Daily tours at Southfork (southfork.com; $10.75) exhibit rooms modeled after sets like Jock's living room and Lucy's "Yellow Rose of Texas" suite, and iconic props like the gun that shot J. R. and Lucy's frills-and-lace wedding dress are on display in the museum. Visitors can also walk the grounds, which are featured prominently in the wedding scene that opens the pilot of the new series. Sally Peavy, who has been giving tours of the ranch for 15 years, said that though there has been a recent uptick in visits, the ranch has always been popular with visitors to Dallas.
"They want to see the J.F.K. museum and Southfork," she said, "It's like the second White House of the United States, if you will."

Our daily roundup of retirement news your clients may be thinking about.
BlackRock's Larry Fink on the retirement savings crisis
Workers who are 45 and above need to include longevity in their retirement planning as the country faces a retirement savings crisis, Larry Fink of BlackRock. As people tend to be healthier and often live longer than expected, longevity should be viewed as a "blessing" that gives them the opportunity to continue working past the age of retirement. The fear of loss is a factor that keeps people from building adequate nest eggs for their golden years, and the government may consider putting up a mandatory retirement savings system to address the crisis, Fink says. -- Businessweek
Many Americans are not prepared for retirement: Fed survey
Many households are unprepared for retirement, or simply don't plans to ever retire, with only about 25% of workers saving through an employer-sponsored 401(k) retirement plan, according to a survey. Below one-third of non-retired respondents claimed they don't have any pension or retirement savings, with 25% saying they didn't make any plans for their golden years. The poll also found that 25% of respondents who considered retirement planning had no idea how they will pay their bills in retirement. -- MarketWatch
Roth IRA might be used to pay school loan
Although using retirement savings to pay off debt is usually not a good idea, clients can settle their student loan using money from their Roth IRA, according to Bankrate, an online provider of financial information. In response to an inquiry from a worker who has a concern over unpaid student loan, an expert said that in certain cases, this can make sense. Clients will not face a big income tax penalty if they withdraw from Roth IRA as contributions are pre-taxed, he says. When making a Roth IRA withdrawal, clients should consider "account seasoning" and know the rule that allows regular contributions to be withdrawn first, before other contributions and earnings, the expert says. -- Yahoo Finance
Why the good news for retiree health care may not last
There will be no increase in Medicare premiums next year but the program's long-term financial status prompts people to think that a premium increase is not a remote possibility. The low cost of health care services means premium for Part B next year will be $104.90 per month, while there will be a $1 increase in monthly premium for Part D plan, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. -- CNN Money
5 ways to confront new health-care costs in retirement
As retirees are likely to pay a bigger share of their health care expenses as employer coverage is poised for an overhaul, opening a health saving account can help them prepare for the rising costs, according to Morningstar. They may also consider working past their retirement age and file Social Security benefits only when they reach their full retirement age of 70. Clients can save money if they choose the Medicare Advantage coverage option although there are tradeoffs. They also need to account for Medicare's premium brackets when doing income planning. -- Morningstar

DALLAS — We're just over a week away from the NCAA Women's Final Four rolling into Dallas, and there's a lot of excitement for it to finally tip-off, especially over at the Hyatt Regency, the final four's official hotel.
"Our team gets very excited, because they recognize the eyes of the world are on Dallas and these events and they get pumped up," said Bryan King, the Director of Sales and Marketing at Hyatt Regency.
While it may not have quite the same impact as the Men's Final Four hosted by North Texas three years ago, what the women bring in is far from chump change with an estimated thirty million bucks expected to pour into the city.
But Dallas has become one of the biggest event destinations in the nation, and places like the Hyatt have plenty of experience to bring things like this home for the win.
"Hyatt Regency Dallas does about a thousand events in a year so it's about three a day on average," said King. "There's a lot of moving parts that go on to run a large convention hotel like Hyatt and NCAA, while it's another one of those groups, it's a large group that we will be ready for because that's what we do best."
Well, the overall turnout of the event might still be up in the air. But with Baylor and UT still in the tourney, a few more Lone Star wins could turn the whole Final Four into a Texas-sized party.
But whoever travels into town, it looks like we'll be ready for them. Just proof that hosting big-time events is becoming a habit here in Dallas.

Spotlight falls on creepy Ohio preacher
Prompted by allegations of weird goings-on at Ernest Angley's Grace Cathedral in Cuyahoga Falls, The Akron Beacon Journal ran a five-part investigation into the 93-year-old's operation. It makes for hair-raising reading.
The reports are the result of a two-month investigation by Beacon Journal reporter Bob Dyer. The paper says that former members of the congregation began to contact Dyer during the summer about concerns they had regarding Angley, an "internationally known television evangelist", and the ministry he's headed since 1957.
Dyer talked to 21 former members – often numerous times – in reporting this story. In addition, Dyer had an exclusive, 90-minute interview with Angley, along with Associate Pastor Chris Machamer and usher Mike Kish, to report their side of the story.
Depending whom you ask, one of two things is happening at the church:
• The devil himself has infiltrated it and Angley, who is a prophet of God, has been working tirelessly to fight him off.
• Angley's church is a dangerous cult where pregnant women are encouraged to have abortions, childless men are encouraged to have vasectomies and Angley – who preaches vehemently against the "sin" of homosexuality – is himself a gay man who personally examines the genitals of the male parishioners before and after their surgeries. They also say he turns a blind eye to sexual abuse by other members of his church.
Former members of Angley's congregation say people who leave the church are not only shunned, but also often criticised by name during services.
Perhaps no one has been subjected to more venom than former Associate Pastor Brock Miller, who stepped down on July 4.
Miller told friends and family that he left because he had been "violated" by Angley for seven years and could no longer take it.
Angley "had him undress and touched him all over," said a family member who did not want to be identified because many members of the large family are still devout followers.
I don't believe he touched him on his part, but it doesn't matter. That doesn't belong in the church. It doesn't belong anywhere, but it [certainly] doesn't belong in the church.
According to this report, some male ex-churchgoers say they weren't surprised by Miller's allegations, because Angley took an inordinate amount of interest in their genitalia too.
It is alleged that Angley routinely brought men into his office to examine them before and after vasectomies. He apparently insists that all male of his congregation have to have the snip.
Angley also reportedly took an interest in his male parishioners' danglies during pastoral counseling.
Kenny Montgomery, 43, above, who owns a mobile dog-grooming business in Akron, said a counseling session with Angley took a shocking turn when he went to see the minister for his marital problems, including a lack of sex with his wife:
I [talked] to Ernest about that, because you're not allowed to see an outside counselor, because an outside counselor has a 'Doctorate of Devils,' as he calls it.
He asked me, 'Do you do oral sex on her?' And I said, 'Yeah, but I don't know what that has to do with it.' And then he puts his hands over his mouth and starts stroking his chin and licking his lips. This is creepy.
And he goes, 'So, are you large?' And I go, 'What do you mean?' And he says, 'Your penis — is it really large?' And I got kind of pissed. I go, 'You know, I never sat around and compared it with another man's'.
He backed right off when I said that. He says, 'Well, you just need to pray to God and seek God more and all this will be better' – and pretty much shoved me out of his office'.
For his part, Angley told the paper that Miller was a drunken liar, and most of the ex-parishioners now accusing him were sinning prevaricators, too.
It's all kinds of tales. But if I traced down every lie, I wouldn't get nothing else done. Jesus didn't, and I try to be just as much like him as I can.
In a sermon around the same time, trying to explain the allegations swirling around his ministry, Angley told worshippers:
They called Jesus a homosexual, did you know that?

That haircut. If god really existed – surely, surely he would intervene. It is a crime against everything that is good and sane.
He is 93 and neither a patch of bald or a grey hair. The hair looks like a mat dumped on his head. It is extraordinary the way anyone in some parts of the USA can do whatever they want as long as the are a preacher.
God can cure AIDS, but he can't revive dead hair follicles. Can you believe that? Angley has sported dodgy hairpieces since he was a young man. Ever fancied trying one, Barry?
From his early childhood Ernest Angley knew there was something different about him. He was aware that his desires were not the same as those of other boys his age.
I am NOT making it up!
Guess what? His "ministry" is active in Africa. (You won't want to watch much of the following.)
I'm not sure that he's still alive. Could he have been embalmed and be worked like a robot?
I think he's possibly the worst public speaker that I have ever heard. How can people be so gullible?
I wonder whether his income is tax free? Just a thought.
He is a famous "healing evangelist." He has pioneered new methods of healing which are pushing the boundaries of medicine. The examination of patents requires no stethoscope, no taking of blood pressure as these have been replaced by the healing evangelist examining, in detail and at length (one might say), the genitals of male patients. The rest of the body can be ignored.
In counselling of couples with marital problems detailed descriptions of cunnilingus are essential.
Sex and religion!
Nothing dodgy about that one, Barry! Is this, perchance, a friend of yours accosting Bob Hutton?
(I'm not sure what God has against "Pencil Kneck Weak Kneed Gutless Men". Ideas anyone?)
The real problem are the idiots who follow guys like this.
Did ya hear the catlick poop has accepted the "theory of evolution" ? coarse he had to put a religious twist to it…they make it up as they go along
Barry: Glad to be of service.
Broga: Regarding AIDS, Ebola, and "faith healers", the following is from Uganda, and shows that some there, at least, have their heads screwed on the right way!
The only person I know who claimed he could cure AIDS was a Pastor Balabyekubo, of the Prayer Palace in Kibuye.
Scores of people answered his call and went to be cured; but the media started counting the number of coffins that would leave that church in a day, and he stopped accepting patients, claiming he was being witch-hunted by the press.
He himself died soon after.
I couldn't find the story about the jewish bus stone throwers so i"ll post this hypocritical story and link here.
what a link to this chaps fantastic bio/cv/resume.
I liked this bit which proved god is not real.
"Remarkable miracles of healing followed him everywhere he went."
If there were a god, as others mention, he wouldn't need a plastic mat on his head, god would not let him go bald. He does look a bit like a badger in a curtain.
James Randi – Magicians, Psychics and Frauds. I've recorded the programme but haven't watched it yet.
If you missed it on BBC4 last night you can watch again on the iplayer.
@Angela_K: I've also got it recorded. In the meantime enjoying barryjohn's link to the impotence of the faith healers regarding Ebola etc. Homeopathy not succeeding either. I hope that UK enthusiast Charles Windsor has noted this. In the last photo I saw of him he had a shelf of medals on his uniform. Mummy is generous with them.
Meanwhile, back in the Outback, another religious old nutter is claiming to cure ebola, AIDs et al. by getting people to drink bleach. Perhaps he should get Angley to put some on his wig!
I believe James Randi has had something to say about Angley. Someone remarked here recently that Sally Morgan is a comedian but doesn't know it, and, not wishing to split hairs, I said nothing. However, Janet Street-Porter had this to say about her recently in the Mail:
Sally Morgan tours the country making plenty of money at her live events, where she claims to invoke the spirits of dead people. But what if she claims to have spoken to someone you recently lost without consulting you first? Recently, she claimed to have spoken to someone called Kris, wearing Lycra and on a bicycle, connected to the name Nicola. This was in Woking, the home town of Kris Cook, who died of a cardiac arrest during a cycling challenge in August. His death was reported locally and nationally. Sally's revelations are upsetting for his girlfriend Nicola.
Can you believe that? It's pathetic. She didn't even need an earpiece for that one! Street-Porter also alludes to the fact that Morgan has been forced to sack her husband and son-in-law after they were filmed making physical and homophobic attacks against protesters outside venues where she was appearing. (You can see all this on YouTube.)
Evidently, October was "Psychic Awareness Month"!
'I am utterly ashamed and devastated at the behaviour of my husband John and son-in-law Daren, and neither of them will have anything to do with my work, my business, and right now I honestly have no idea what is going to happen to my marriage.'
Enigmatically, the statement concluded: 'There will be many more important decisions being made over the course of this week.'
She couldn't see that coming then?
I'd never trust a man with sausages for ears.

text: There's a 70% chance that people over 65 will need some kind of long-term care, including services such as home care, assisted living and skilled nursing, according to government statistics. The concern with Long-Term Care is how to pay for it. The costs for this type of insurance can be high, but when you need Long-Term Care, you will quickly realize you cannot put a price on home healthcare. Access to your home's equity Most reverse mortgages involve a lump sum for an immediate need or a string of payments over time to use a certain percentage of home equity to fund a need. Because reverse mortgages are generally used by older people whose homes are paid off or nearly paid off, long-term care is one natural use of the funds. Here's an example of how a Reverse Mortgage can help with Long-Term Care: Let's say you're 65. You don't need long-term care now, but you want the security of knowing it will be there when and if you need it. You could, for example, get a $160,000 reverse mortgage line of credit that increases in value around 4% per year no matter what the value of your $300,000 home does. When you reach your mid-80s and your need to pay for long-term care could be reaching a high point, the line of credit amount would be about $350,000. As you use this available money, you don't have to pay a monthly bill as you would with traditional home equity loans; the money is subtracted from the equity in the home. The line of credit comes due either when you move out of your home or die, in which case your heirs or your estate could pay the loan back either through sale of the home or other means. Advantages over a HELOC A Reverse Mortgage Line of Credit is advantageous over a home equity line of credit because with a HELOC, the borrower must begin making monthly payments immediately. With a reverse mortgage line of credit, the borrower doesn't have to make monthly payments at all. And, as indicated above, the available funds in this type of line of credit grow over time, while HELOCs typically provide a fixed amount that the borrower can draw against and that the lender could freeze at any time to preclude further borrowing. Having as many resources as possible to cover long-term care needs is an important part of a holistic financial plan. A reverse mortgage line of credit can ensure you'll have funds readily available at the time of need. CONTACT US: Name(required) Email(required) Comment(required)

University of the Philippines Population Institute 2018 Lecture Series
Thursday, April 12, 2018
10 a.m. - 12 p.m. UPPI Seminar Room
Palma Hall, UP Diliman, Quezon City
Understanding Population Heterogeneity in Demographic and Human Capital Dynamics: How Does it matter for the Future Population Outlook?
Dr. Samir K.C.
In a country, age and gender differentials are the two fundamental sources of population heterogeneity considered in almost demographic analysis. Recently, research has demonstrated the importance of educational attainment and place of residence as additional sources of population heterogeneity. This presentation will focus on a case study from India on the impacts of these factors to population size and structure.
Modelling and Projecting Subnational Population Trends in the Philippines: Initial Findings
Dr. Grace T. Cruz, Ms. Christian Joy P. Cruz and Ms. Klarriness Tanalgo
Most Philippine population projections since 1970 show that actual census counts fall below the low scenario projection. Using an R-based multidimensional projection model formulated by the Asian Demographic Research Center and International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis, this presentation shows results from the analysis of recent trends in subnational population stratified by education and urban/rural residence. Preliminary results from the 2015 multistate projections indicate a close estimate to the official census count relative to the traditional age- and sex- projections.

Author Interview: Three tips for thriving in the digital age
David Neff, COO of Network for Good's partner HelpAttack!, has co-written a new book on nonprofit success in the digital age. While the primary audience is nonprofits, in the spirit of cross-sector collaborative problem solving, the lessons are applicable to any organization trying to balance core business priorities and investment in innovation and emerging technologies – especially any organization with a triple bottom line mindset.
The following is a guest post from Katya Andresen, Network for Good's COO and author of Robin Hood Marketing. You can follow her nonprofit marketing insights at NonprofitMarketingBlog.com.
David Neff and Randal Moss have a new book out called the Future of Nonprofits: Innovate and Thrive in the Digital Age. (You can order it here.)
Since they just wrote an entire book on how we can create a new, more flexible, innovative organization in a digital age, I asked them what advice they could provide us. Here's my Q&A with David Neff.
Q: What's the biggest way the nonprofit landscape is going to change this decade?
A: I think the biggest change the nonprofit sector is going to see this decade has to do with how we track, score and analyze individual people in our organization. This could be anything from adding social media information to the fields in your donor database to changing the way we set expectations for our employees. Of course, nonprofits have to want to change for this to happen.
Q: If you were ED of a typical nonprofit, what two things should you do to prepare?
A: Invest money in technology. I know this is a very scary thing for most organizations, but it needs to be done. You can't reply on that Access Database when the other nonprofits you are competing with have Salesforce for nonprofits. Also you don't have the same excuses you used to. Organizations like NTEN and TechSoup are here to help you discover what you need and when you need it. Use them! The second big change is that Awareness is dead. No one is watching your PSA at 3am. You need to switch to advertising your nonprofit. And you need to budget (even small amounts) to make that advertising happen.
Q: What's the biggest failure you cite in the book and how can we learn from it?
The demise of my personal sanity while writing it. : ) Just kidding! The biggest failure is staff turnover and how the industry treats new staff. We hire all these people in their 20's and 30's and then say no to all their big ideas. In our minds we simply don't have time or resources to let them experiment. Even though we know those experiments could be home runs or just singles. The book is how to say yes to those big ideas.
